Assalammualaikum Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh and Greetings,

First and foremost, let us express our gratitude to Allah S.W.T. for allowing us to gather here today in such a meaningful setting.

Firstly, I would like to extend my deepest appreciation and thanks to all parties who have continuously supported the Johor National Parks Corporation in our efforts to advance the eco-tourism sector in Johor. Eco-tourism development not only provides tourists with the opportunity to enjoy the beauty of nature, but also empowers the local economy through community participation.

The Johor National Parks Corporation is committed to making our national parks premier eco-tourism destinations. We have undertaken various initiatives to ensure that tourists have the best possible experience in our national parks, including enhancing infrastructure and providing interactive environmental education programs. We believe that through this approach, tourists can not only enjoy the natural beauty but also understand the importance of conservation and preservation of the environment.

Furthermore, conservation efforts and the preservation of biodiversity in flora and fauna are our top priorities. We are aware that the richness of biodiversity is an invaluable asset and it is our collective responsibility to protect it. Therefore, various conservation programs have been implemented, including monitoring endangered species, habitat restoration, and scientific research. We also collaborate with various agencies and organizations to ensure these efforts run smoothly and effectively.

I would also like to take this opportunity to call on all parties, including local communities, tourists, and non-governmental organizations, to continue working with the Johor National Parks Corporation in our efforts to promote eco-tourism and conservation. Our success in preserving and conserving the natural environment can only be achieved with the support and cooperation of all parties.

In conclusion, I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to everyone who has shown support and commitment to the Johor National Parks Corporation. May these noble efforts continue to benefit current and future generations. Let us work together to protect and preserve our natural heritage so that it remains safeguarded for all to enjoy.

Conserve Nature for Our Future!

Thank you.
